There is a branch of the La Force family that changed their name to Le Force due to the confussion with so many La Force families with all the same given names.
I used to correspond with a couple of them...Dan or Don. There is a GREEN surname connection with that side of the family.
I will have to find some info at home to pass on to you.

Could you share the details of Rene La Force's death with me? Do you know anything about Judith La Force? I'd appreciate your help.

Joan - I work right next to another great granddaughter of Charles Banzet and Mary Elizabeth LeForce - she is daughter of Clyde Banzet son of Samuel Edward Banzet.
Please email me - we just got started on this today. Her name is Viola Bailey. Mary Ann in K.C. - penguin1@kc.rr.com

Dear Mary Ann Rosas and Viola Bailey--just received your message. Always glad to hear from another "cousin". Are you also researching the Banzet line? I have more information on the Banzet side going back to Alsace Lorraine, France than I have on the La Force side in Virginia. I was fortunate to make contact with Andre Banzet in Ferrette, France, who sent me this family lineage back to 1600. Andre also sent me a list of Banzet descendants here in the US that he researched years ago. Looking forward to hearing from you. See other message sent directly from my email program a few minutes ago.

I'm a decendent of John Bradley Lee & Amanda Rachel (Blankenship) LeForce. Perhaps you can help me on our site at http://theleforces.com.

All I have left to do is brige the gap from John Bradley Lee's dad Ranney LeForce, a second generation Frenchman, to his father. Was he Dr. Renald Rene LaForce?

Then we've got to bridge the gap between Dr. Renald Rene LaForce & France. Did he belong to the Delaforces or the Caumont La Forces?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My name is Linda Bean LaForce. My husband is Robert Norman LaForce son of Norman Randall LaForce-I have been working on genealogy since 1982 but have found nothing new in years. I am always glad to share.

Update. We now have a family tree @ Geni where we can all work there together plus share pics & all kinds of other things. I just uploaded a copy of Dr. Rene's Inventory of Estate plus posted he & Sarah's wills (under the event "death"). Please do search for your ancestor & if you find them let me know how to get from them to you so I can add/invite you. :)
